Finding a Wedding Photographer<br />
BY LISA MARIE SMITH<br />
Unlike the work of<br />
your other wedding<br />
vendors (music, flower<br />
arrangements, cake),<br />
photographs aren’t things<br />

art, is marked by outside-the-box, tilted angles (called Dutch<br />
angles) and unconventional framing.<br />
STEP 2: DO YOUR HOMEWORK<br />
Start your search by reading reviews from recent newlyweds<br />
and browsing hundreds of local listings. Carefully review<br />
